Unbelievable Light Painting Portrait in Seoul Korea

As part of this year’s in recent times wrapped National Geographic Photo Contest, photographer Sungjin Kim entered this incredible light painting portrait. As we have seen a few times before, a piece of steel wool was spun to produce a brilliant cascade of sparks.

Love how this was taken right in the middle of a busy metropolitan city and how the light painting effect is intensified by the reflection in the water. This is one of the best pictures I ever see. Playing with a fire beside the canal in the modern city. Songdo, South Korea
